MADISON, Wis.
(AP) - A man who wears thong underwear and a cape while riding his scooter
through Wisconsin's
capital city may be a strange sight. But police say he isn't breaking any laws.

Earlier this month, staff at John F. Kennedy Elementary School
in Madison
called authorities after the man rode by in his unmentionables while students
were walking to a bus.

Police spokesman Joel DeSpain tells
the Wisconsin State Journal (http://bit.ly/12BOaeP ) that a sergeant had a chat
with the person police call Thong Cape Scooter Man. He admitted he used poor
judgment in going past the school but said he did it unintentionally.

The city attorney told police the
man broke no laws.

So it seems Thong Cape Scooter Man
is free to ride on.
